Haunted House on Sorority Row

A group of young women buy a spooky old house in the middle of nowhere for their sorority. Turns out the house is haunted and preys on the occupants worst fears and biggest secrets or shames from their past.

The gals who bought the house are joined by a couple of friends to help them move their stuff into the new sorority house. You've got the nice guy, who wants to impress one of the gals, and there's Jim, the big jerk character. I find him pretty amusing, although I don't condone acting like that in real life.

There's a few actresses that frequently show up in Henrique Couto and Dustin Mills films, such as Erin R. Ryan, Joni Duran, and Haley J. Madison.

I totally loved it. Henrique Couto hit this one out of the park. If you do not like independent films you have not seen this one. The only way I can imagine it better would to have seen it at the big screen. The acting was top notch. The actresses not only beautiful but extremely talented. I strongly require mend going out and picking up a copy.This Dayton based cast and crew can hold their own against Hollywood Blockbuster. I can only imagine what Couto could do with the massive major motion pitcher budget. I expect to see great things from Couto in the future. And the same from this awesome cast. Without giving any spoilers all I can say is this is a must see movie.

If you haven't checked out the films of Henrique Couto, do yourself a favor and go seek them out. While not my absolute favorite film of his (that honor will always be the first I saw, Depression: The Movie), it shows that the man and his stable of irregular regulars know exactly how to make no budget films that fire on all cylinders. This one is a ghost tale, or an urban legend, or a body horror, or a raunchy comedy. It all depends on how you look at it and which scene is playing now. It may sound jarring, but it actually works like gangbusters and manages the changes in pace and twists that come very well.

The acting, direction, sound design and cinematography are all far above what you would expect from an indie film such as this, I encourage you to give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

Another film director but lower budget independent filmmaker Henrique Couto. It's another horror low budget which we would know about what to expect. Although expected a little better than what was presented. The plot is nothing special and nothing in which we haven't seen before. A group of sorority girls end up moving into an unexpected hated house which ends up causing them seeing spirited and ghosts of such.

There are more attempts at jump scares and horror scenes with the hallucinations of these demonic nude women that would occasionally appear but besides that, everything is essentially bland.

The acting is worse than seen in Babysitter Massacre, most noticeable by the character of Jim.

The ending is very anticlimax and rather dull where it ends up being disappointing and feels like it never went anywhere.

An excellent blend of horror and comedy. The background music gave it an 80s feel at times which fits with the type of movie, this would definitely have fit right in with other 80s horror movies (aka the best era of horror). There was a more psychological horror than physical horror and they nailed it perfectly, allowing you to watch as the characters slowly unravel into insanity.

Similar to a lot of horror movies of this type, the movie was lacking in the male department as the focus was more on the girls. There were only 3 guys total and each was very different. Joe Kidd is just a small supporting role but he did well. Eric Widing was a typical frat-boy douche who you could tell had a blast acting in that way! Mike Hilinski played a normal guy who is trying to look good for a girl he's crushing on. I could definitely relate to his character, getting annoyed at the douche friend who was acting out and making him look bad.

All the females were great, with different personalities for each. I've seen too many horror movies where all the females are written as generic and stereotypical but definitely not here.

I enjoyed how the writing did not seem forced for the actors. The dialog was very casual and something you could expect yourself to say in those situations. Sometimes in horror movies there will be excessive cursing simply to have cursing, but that was not the case here.

Only complaint? Who in their right mind tries to get spaghetti from a pot with a normal spoon?!? That's the most I can complain!
